This blog started off by focussing on NZ's smaller 3rd level airlines, past and present. It has evolved to trying to present some record of NZ's domestic airline operations and some of the larger charter operators, interesting NZ international airliner movements and photos I have taken around the country.

Auckland Turbos

Air Chathams' Convair 580 ZK-CIE arriving into Auckland from Kerikeri on 8 November 2015

Mount Cook Airline's ATR-72-500 ZK-MCW... there have been some comments that the ATR72 is the aircraft type that has anywhere near the performance of the Air Chathams' Convairs... I'd heard something similar a year or two ago

Alliance Airways' Fokker 50 replaced the Air Chathams' Convairs on the Tauck Tours flights. It is seen here arriving into Auckland on 8 November 2015
